Bijeljina
Basic information
Bijeljina is one of the fastest-growing cities in the region, located on the plain between the Drina and Sava rivers at the foot of Mount Majevica. As the administrative and economic center of the northeastern part of the country, the city is known as the "breadbasket of BiH." Bijeljina's tourist identity is inextricably linked to the Stanišići Ethno Village, which attracts visitors from all over the world with its authentic wooden houses and lakes. Also located near the city is Banja Dvorovi, known for its healing thermomineral waters. The city is also graced by the magnificent Tavna Monastery, a historical gem hidden in the Majevica hills. With modern shopping centers, well-maintained parks, and a rich culinary scene based on local Sember products, Bijeljina is an ideal destination for weekend getaways and business meetings.
